Abstract: The disclosed “Live Mount In Cloud” solution enables, within a cloud computing environment that houses a desired backup copy made from a source virtual machine, immediate access to backed up data on demand without restoring the backup copy in its entirety. Live Mount In Cloud also enables the live-mounted VM to write new data, not just to read from the backup copy. Live Mount In Cloud creates multiply nested VMs within the cloud computing environment. Accordingly, the live-mounted VM runs in (is hosted by) a hypervisor nested within a cloud-native VM. Live Mount In Cloud handles any differences between formatting and configuration settings of the hypervisor hosting the live-mounted VM and the way in which the backup copy is formatted. A backup proxy VM intercepts reads and writes issued by the live-mounted VM and facilitates access to the backup copy.

Abstract: Several circuits and methods implemented to perform signal quality estimation and control are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method of signal quality estimation includes generating a demodulated signal associated with a radio signal. Information associated with a quality of the demodulated signal is accessed. Further, a value of radio frequency signal-to-noise ratio (RF-SNR) for the radio signal based on the information is estimated. Estimating the value of RF-SNR facilitates in signal quality estimation of the radio signal and control of the demodulated signal.
